OnClick JavaScript Error

Hello - Here's my code for my Request Validation Button on a lead. 

I got this error 
User-added image
  
{!REQUIRESCRIPT("/soap/ajax/21.0/connection.js")} 

var leadAddress = '{!Lead.Street}'; 
var leadCity = '{!Lead.City}'; 
var leadState = '{!Lead.State}'; 
var leadCountry = '{!Lead.Country}'; 
var leadZip = '{!Lead.PostalCode}'; 

if(leadAddress == null || leadAddress == ''){ 
alert('Please enter a valid Street Address along with the City, State/Province, Zip/Postal Code and Country before clicking on this button.'); 
} 
else if(leadCity == null || leadCity == ''){ 
alert('Please enter a valid Street Address along with the City, State/Province, Zip/Postal Code and Country before clicking on this button.'); 
} 
else if(leadState == null || leadState == ''){ 
alert('Please enter a valid Street Address along with the City, State/Province, Zip/Postal Code and Country before clicking on this button.'); 
} 
else if(leadCountry == null || leadCountry == ''){ 
alert('Please enter a valid Street Address along with the City, State/Province, Zip/Postal Code and Country before clicking on this button.'); 
} 
else if(leadZip == null || leadZip == ''){ 
alert('Please enter a valid Street Address along with the City, State/Province, Zip/Postal Code and Country before clicking on this button.'); 
} 
else{ 
var urlStr = '/a0J/e?' 
+ 'CF00Nj00000091TUH={!Lead.FirstName &" "& Lead.LastName }' 
+ '&CF00Nj00000091TUH_lkid={!Lead.Id}' 
+ '&retURL=%2F{!Lead.Id}' 
+ '&saveURL=%2F{!Lead.Id}' 
+ '&RecordType=012j0000000pfbL' 
+ '&ent=01Ij0000001EVex' 
+ '&00Nj00000091TU6={!Lead.Company}' 
+ '&00Nj00000091TUQ=Pending'; 

window.open(urlStr,"_self") 
}


I found out that this error happens if the address is filled in as two lines, because it's a "long text" field maybe?
If the street field is filled out as "1008 W. 8th Avenue, Ste. E" It is okay. But as soon as it becomes two lines, like this
"1008 W. 8th Avenue
Ste. E" it throws this error. 

Can someone tell me what i can do about this?

Thanks!

Hi Mitchell.

You will need to replace '<br>' with '\n' in JavaScript.
  
var leadAddress = '{!Lead.Street}'.replace(/(?:\r\n|\r|\n)/g, '<br />');

I still got the same error once i added another line to Lead.Street

Any other suggestions?

OK, I think you have hidden carriage returns in your code.

Can you try this:
  
alert('{!JSENCODE(Lead.Street)}');

If this works, just use JSENCODE then
